Brain care study aims to shield diabetic seniors from memory decline
NCT ID NCT07250789
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how common memory problems are in older adults (65+) with type 2 diabetes. It then tests a program that combines several lifestyle changes to see if it can prevent or slow down memory loss. About 420 people will take part, and their thinking skills will be compared to those receiving usual care.

Inclusion Criteria for the Prevalence Study (Cognitive Screening): * Age ≥ 65 years * Diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) * Patient at the outpatient clinic at either Bispebjerg Hospital, Rigshospitalet, or Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen * Speaks and understands Danish (required for the cognitive tests) * Informed written consent Inclusion Criteria for the Randomized Controlled Trial (Multidomain Intervention): * Meets all the above inclusion criteria, and at least one of the following: 1. A diabetes-specific dementia score ≥ 7 (equivalent to a 40% increased risk of developing dementia within the next 10 years), and a SCIP or MoCA score ≥ 0.5 SD below the age- and education-adjusted norm 2. A SCIP or MoCA score ≥ 1 SD below the age- and education-adjusted norm 3. At least 2 out of 5 SCIP subtests with a score ≥ 1 SD below the age- and education-adjusted norm Exclusion Criteria for the Prevalence Study (Cognitive Screening): * Diagnosis of dementia or prior referral to a dementia clinic * Diagnosis of psychiatric, neurological, or other disorders that, in the investigator's opinion, hinder participation in cognitive screening, preclude compliance with the study protocol, or affect the evaluation of results Exclusion Criteria for the Randomized Controlled Trial (Multidomain Intervention): * Meets all the above exclusion criteria * Participants whose cognitive MoCA screening indicates dementia will be excluded and advised to contact their physician * Participants unwilling to engage in parts of the multidomain intervention will be excluded
